Kennedale is a city in Tarrant County, Texas, United States. The population was 6,763 at the 2010 census.
Most leases expect the tenant to do repairs. My suggestion would be to have an insurance policy that covers most repairs on a house and the cost of the policy is like $43 a month and $60 for someone to do the repairs. They cover the A/C, heat, plumbing, electrical.
There are no specific legal standards pertaining to the cost of repairing damages. Tenants may have the opportunity to make the repairs themselves, with permission from the landlord, and depending on the type and extent of the damage as well as the terms of the lease. The tenant may also be able to negotiate with the landlord to have the repairs made. Generally speaking, a landlord can charge for the cost of materials, the cost of hiring a contractor, or the fair cost of labor comparable to regional rates if the landlord made the repair themselves.
